Life has a funny way of giving us exactly what we need practice in. Nearly nine years into my career as a class action attorney, I burned out big time. Years of living in a constant state of stress reaction mode in a toxic work environment led to multiple ER visits, a prescription for anxiety meds, chronic headaches, and constant muscle pain in my neck and shoulders. Ordinary tasks that used to take me a few hours began taking much longer and I found it increasingly difficult to focus on anything work-related. I was disengaged, disillusioned and dissatisfied.
